Review of an undergraduate medical school training programme in human sexuality.

Human sexuality is an important part of the medical student undergraduate curriculum. A description of one of the most comprehensive and established training programmes in the UK is presented. A review of the students on the programme found a perceived improvement in the ability of knowledge in all of the objectives set within the training schedule. The provision of an evolving programme using didactic lectures, role play and small-group work is an effective delivery programme for medical students and it would be expected to be of similar usefulness for other healthcare professionals in training.
